STOCKYARD CREEK REST AREA

Public BBQ

A rest area in the rainforest on the Oxley Highway between Port Macquarie and Walcha, and the only one along that stretch with a toilet - a long drop, and reputedly the best-kept in northern New South Wales. There are tables and chairs, a decent picnic area and plenty of room to park, with a small stream running nearby. The birdlife is the reason to linger: bellbirds and whipbirds all around, and superb lyrebirds, satin bowerbirds, wrens and finches about. Overnight camping is allowed, with no power and no water. Please note that barbecues are wood fired, so come prepared.
